Does anything work?!

OK, obviously our 1st IVF did not work. But certain things should especially if you pay good money for it. JP bought a new MacBook in July for my birthday, it works good except for a few glitches. Minor yet annoying. I'll have to take it in for service because there are a couple of light dots that keep appearing and disappearing on the screen. At first I thought it was a couple of burned out pixels, but it could be a loose circuit or something. Not looking forward to driving 40 minutes to get it serviced and probably being without my laptop for a week or two. For $1400 I would think one should not have to deal with something like this. Maybe it got bumped around in shipping, I don't know. Either way, what a hassle. Now yesterday I got a new mobile phone. The really cool Motorola Slvr. I can sync it up with my iTunes and store 100 mp3 songs and it has a camera with a full one megapixel compared to the Razr's 1/2 megapixel camera, plus I can take video too, very cool. With a $50 rebate, I pay $150! Expensive right? Well it's already crapped out on me today! I can't even do something as simple as edit my contacts. So I'll be heading back to the store tomorrow to deal with that. I suppose I'll get the Razr instead and save myself another $50. Who really needs a phone to play Mp3s anyway.

What's worse, our car needs some major expensive repairs. This is not unexpected though. We've been driving this car for 2 and half years and never had any major problems until now. It's a 2001 Daewoo Leganza, we won it on ebay and paid only $3200 for it. When we bought it, it had 46,000 miles and we've just about doubled that. It has been good to us, we've taken it on several long road trips and not having car payments is great. It seems like one problem started right after the other. First it started to leak oil, the brakes need repair and the AC broke. Of course, I noticed the brakes feeling low and they we're making screeching noises for a few weeks. I told JP we needed to get them fixed before the pads get too low and ruin the rotors. Even I know the cost would be 3 times what it cost to replace the pads. Well not only are mechanics quoting $400 to repair the brakes, the brakes are dangerously low. I'm so mad at JP! I warned him almost a month ago we need to take care of it, It would of cost only $100-$150 to change the pads. I should have taken it to the shop myself. Now he wants to change the brakes himself, yikes! He gets mad if I question him about this. I'd like to believe in him, but I don't know if he's done this before, I know he's never worked on anti-lock brakes. It's a little different. What really bothers me is that he drives this car to work everyday and I am worried about him getting in an accident. Especially with the way he drives. Of course he thinks he's a good driver, but I think he drives too fast and too close behind people and pays too much attention to cars behind him rather than cars in front of him. That said, he is a good defensive driver, but you need good breaks for that. Anyway, back on subject, our A/C is out and the shop says it's the condenser which will cost a freakin $1100 to fix, ridiculous! You can't live without A/C in Las Vegas! We don't even know why the oil is really leaking, they said the filter was put on wrong, but it's been leaking before the oil change we got a month ago and it still leaks. What a disaster. Just when you think things are going great, it's like a bomb drops on you. I feel like my life has turned into a money pit and I'm so annoyed that everything is like a major chore. It's certainly true that the more you have the more you work. I don't need this, especially now. I only had one goal for this half of the year, to get pregnant. I have no clue how this stress is going to effect that process.
